Hi! I’m a UC Berkeley student studying Molecular and Cell Biology with the goal of becoming a pediatrician. I have extensive experience working with children through babysitting, tutoring, mentoring, and volunteering. I’ve worked in a pediatric clinic, volunteered at a children’s hospital, and mentored a child with autism, which has taught me patience, compassion, and how to connect with children of all personalities and needs. I’m also CPR trained and always prioritize safety while making sure kids have fun. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, preparing meals, or keeping a consistent routine, I strive to create a positive, caring, and dependable environment. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide excellent care for your little ones!
